Zusammenfassung

Purpose: Objective of our study is qualitative and quantitative comparison of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and F-18-FDG-PET-CT examination in the follow-up of HAE (hepatic alveolar echinococcosis). Parasitic lesions are to be examined regarding number, size, morphology, calcification, vascularization (CEUS) and metabolic activity (F-18-FDG PET-CT). Material and methods: 36 patients with proven, medically-treated HAE have been included in this prospective, clinical cohort study. Abdominal ultrasound and CEUS have been carried out, using the ultrasound contrast amplifier SonoVue®. As part of the HAE-monitor…
